Does anyone know where i can buy this engine?
I can't find it no where.
I heard that RC1's are 2.8hp stock and rev higher?

the engine you want if buying a zen is the o4 version - they are not stamped o4 but you can tell them apart as they have a red spark plug cap - the older zens have black cap,you may as well buy zen rc260 3.9hp stock - very little price dif and saves buying bore kit

RE: Zenoah G230RC1
Also all the Zenoah G230RC/G260RC engines has the same mounting holes.
As for fitting the engine, it really doesn't matter wich one you chooses.
CY (sold as SiKK, Superior and others) also makes RC Clones.
You can get both the original and the clones at http://www.davesmotors.com , http://www.oneillbrothers.com or at many Goped shops.
I have received excellent service from Daves Discount Motors.

RE: Zenoah G230RC1
MAD has already explained above that the G230RC1, G230RC2, G230RC3, G230RC4, etc only refers to the options the engine comes with; filter, clutch, etc.
The newer, 'red cap' G230RC you see on our site is the 2.8HP one.
However, the G260RC certainly does not put out 3.9HP stock. The original G260RC, using the bored-out G230RC cast cylinder, dynoed at 2.9HP. The new, red cap G260RC with the new true 34mm top end cast dynos at about 3.1HP.

RE: Zenoah G230RC1
Thanks guys for the help.
Ryan bbut which one has the top RPM 23 or 26? I guessing the 23 since the piston is smaller
I also emailed you guys about a go-bike frame, i want to buy a go bike and put GTR engine on it

I agree look at Veron's link first to see how lame they are and how they show you other websites video's since they are too cheap and lazy to make their own.
Then choose a real dealer

Your so called company steals product pictures, video and other items off other online stores....yet you sell nothing online you pay Veron to spam for you or you are Veron which is probably more so the case. In America we have a thing called the BBB and you belong on it for false advertisment and misleading statements to the public.
First of all _if_ Veron isn't spamming your store why does 90% of his post contain links to it when they don't even pertain to the subject matter. The person in this case lives in California....I highly doubt he'd deal with a oversea's retailer who doesn't sell anything online anyhow when there are dozens in the states that he can be positive are not corrupt and are legit.

RE: Zenoah G230RC1
Thats cool but ya think it's really necessary for one user to place their site address in 90% of his posts? To me thats spamming. Yet other companies get yipped at for it, but this dude does it constantly. People here spend thousands of dollars on rc parts...but we don't see 90% of thier post containing 1 specific URL do we? You live in the UK would you buy a part that cost $20 there for $19 here plus $25 shipping? No you wouldn't so the advertisement was uncalled for, there are plenty of US dealers of engines here to assist the user no need to spirt out one...Unless your affiliated with them like the user is. SB can be the best shop online but allowing a user on a forum to spam his website for him every chance he gets doesn't impress anyone it shows the lack of disrespect for the rc community in whole. Also using another rc stores video's and photo's is just outright wrong. Images and Video are copy protected by the creators....

RE: Zenoah G230RC1
I have spent a lot of money with SB racing and I have found them to be reliable and totally trustworthy.
The support and service they offer is second to none.
If anyone in the UK asked where to get a fg or parts from I would recommend SB racing without a doubt.
Dont accuse me of being paid by SB racing too BADZ [:-].
OH SORRY this is a American forum where other US sellers can rip off parts from the design of others (the ultimate compliment to a part design BTW) and post them as there own ideas but as soon as someone points it out the thread disappears and that has happened at least twice in the past week but you have a problem with someone using a stock photo of a part
Typical one rule for one and another rule for the UK members eh!!!!!

Also since this is totally off topic here and really has no need to be discussed in the forum. If you want to discuss it more feel free to PM me.

Ya can crank 6+ HP or more out of a 26cc engine with all the hopups...the hpi...nobody can really tell yet cause depends on what type of motor's on it...it could be some off the wall one but more than likely a cy...I'd guess too with some chopping you can toss anything you want on...I got a traxxas mb i'm going to put a 50cc on over the winter...but i'm rebuilding the entire thing to make it work

REEDed inducted Trevor Simpson engine which will cost you you $1000+
or bigger CC engine...which will have tons of bottom end but no top speed because bigger cc engine wont rev as high as small CC
thats why nitro engines rev like up to 44,000 RPM

RE: Zenoah G230RC1
Those results are with a tuned pibe, and should be realistic.
As for the Reed Valve Engine, that one needs some serius redesign of a FG Off-Road, as the carb vill want to be where the rear diff is...
Rebuilding to a laid down engine design will make it work, but then the fuel tank need to be relocated....(maybe reboulding a onroad car to off road does the trick....
A Race Ported Reed valve 29cc engine should give at least 5hp+ without the tuned exhaust.
